Join mega nerds Dre Alvarez and Jeff May as they geek out on a different nerdy cultural touchstone every month. Part reminiscence, part historical deep dive, all nerd. The eighth episode of NERD! has Dre and Jeff begin their foray into the world of collectible card games with the Star Wars CCG (Jeff's personal favorite and primary hobby from 1996-2002). There's a lot to unpack about this confusingly canceled juggernaut of the card gaming world, so let's activate force, deploy headphones, and intitiate listening as we dive deep into the Star Wars Customizable Card Game!

And don't forget to follow Dre (@nerdnumbers) and Jeff (@heytherejeffro) on the socials and have a nerdy day!

KWANTSU DUDES! My Cool Friend Nic Cowan is an artist, puppeteer, vinyl collector, and oh yeah, he was one of the main characters of the 1993 cult classic SURF NINJAS! You'll be surprised to know that we talk about all of this. Like, even writing a quick synopsis seems futile on this one, and I'm SO PUMPED ABOUT IT! So listen up and go follow @undeadguy on Instagram because his stuff is so cool!

My next Cool Friend Laurie Kilmartin is one of my favorite comedians on the planet. The author of two killer books (Shitty Mom and Dead People Suck) and Co-host of the Jackie and Laurie Show, Laurie was a writer for Conan (the tv host, not the barbarian) for like, a decade! Her latest album Corset is amazing (so go donwload it!) and she's simply the best!

There's a lot to unpack about this indie comics darling, so let's get some sidekicks, satirize some classic comic tropes, and go sane in a crazy world as we dive right into The Tick comics! SPOON!

My incredibly Cool Friend Anna Valenzuela sat down with me to talk about a lot of cool stuff! We discuss standup, her black belt in karate, 2 decades of sobriety, appearances on Roast Battle, touring, and obviously much, much more. Anna and I have been buds for quite some time and I'm so glad I got to sit down with her to learn more about my wonderful friend! So listen up and follow @AnnaVisFunny on the socials ASAP!

My amazingly Cool Friend Chogrin stopped by to talk to me and man, we had some fun. Chogrin is an incredibly talented artist who has found his way collaborating with creators like Guillermo del Toro, Kevin Smith, and companies like Netflix with his new take on classic animation styles and creative gumption. Starting out as mutual fans, we have come together under one roof to discuss dream gigs, the ever-present struggle of being an independant artist, vintage animation, and much much more!

Join mega nerds Dre Alvarez and Jeff May as they geek out on a different nerdy cultural touchstone every month.

If you're a TV person, he wrote on She Hulk and the upcoming Marvel Zombies! If you're a movie person, he was a writer for the upcoming The Marvels flick! Star Wars? He wrote on the Robot Chicken SW episodes!
